This application is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No.17/018,961, filed Sep. 11, 2020 (now allowed), which is a continuationof U.S. patent application Ser. No. 16/557,915 (now U.S. Pat. No.10,803,778), filed on Aug. 30, 2019. The disclosures of each applicationare hereby incorporated by reference herein in their entireties.

BACKGROUND

The present disclosure is directed to techniques for monitoring lightemissions in electronic devices.

SUMMARY

Electronic display devices, in an abundancy of form factors, are used toconsume content. For example, some display devices may include largescreen televisions, personal computer monitors, smartphone screens, andwearable devices (e.g., smartwatches). Extended use of these displaydevices causes eye strain based on the emission exposure of the displaydevice to the eye. The light emission levels vary with the displaydevice, as each device has its own light emission profile. It remainstechnically challenging to provide for a monitoring solution for lightemission levels that considers the plurality of display devices andvaried content types that a user consumes.

Accordingly, techniques are disclosed herein for monitoring lightemissions in electronic devices. The disclosed techniques herein providefor determining a display duration of display devices for a user. Lightemission profiles for each of the display devices are determined. Acumulative emissions exposure is determined that is based on the lightemission profiles for the display devices and the display duration ofthe display devices for the user. A determination is made whether thecumulative emissions exposure exceeds a light emission exposure limitset for the user. In a positive determination, an instruction istransmitted to the display devices for execution of a remedial actionbased on predefined rules.

In some embodiments, when transmitting the instruction to the one ormore display devices for execution of the remedial action, anotification is sent to the user to switch to a display device with alesser light emission profile. The system may be configured to furtherdetermine, after a predefined time period, whether the user has switchedto the display device with the lesser light emission profile. In anegative determination, the first display device is shut down for apredefined period of time.

In other embodiments, determining the cumulative emission exposurefurther includes a determination of content-based emissions exposure tothe user based on characteristics of content consumed on the one or moredevices by the user. The characteristics of content consumed on the oneor more devices by the user may include RGB values of the contentconsumed.

In yet other embodiments, the light emission exposure limit set for theuser is based on user medical information comprising at least one ofeyesight prescription, eyesight conditions, and eye aids applied to theuser. The user medical information may be received from anInternet-of-Things (IoT) device. In other variants, the light emissionexposure limit set for the user is retrieved from a medical database.

The techniques disclosed herein may be used as effective provision ofmonitoring of light emissions on multiple devices, each havingrespective light emission profiles.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

FIG. 1 shows an illustrative diagram 100 of a display device with lightemissions, in accordance with some embodiments of the disclosure. Inparticular, a smartphone device 102 is shown with a light emission 104protruding outwardly from the display of the device.

A monitoring engine may be implemented to determine the light emissionsfrom various devices. In particular, the monitoring engine may determinea display duration of one or more display devices for a user. Forexample, the monitoring engine may determine display duration based onengagement with the display device, by measuring user input to thedisplay device. In another embodiment, the monitoring device maydetermine display duration based on eye-tracking mechanisms usingimage-capturing hardware (e.g., a front-facing camera) and angle of auser's eye, when the user is using the display device. A cumulativetotal of user inputs and/or eye tracking may be implemented to determinedisplay duration of a specific user device. This process may be used formultiple display devices. In yet another embodiment, the monitoringengine may receive the display duration from the display device storagekeeping a log of the duration of the operations of the display.

The monitoring engine may determine the light emission profiles for eachof the one or more display devices. Light emission profiles may beimplemented in a variety of techniques disclosed herein. In someembodiments, measures of light emission profiles are implemented byphotometric measurements, including, at least, luminous flux (measuredin lm), luminous intensity (measured in lm/sr), illuminance (measured inlux), and luminance (measured in lm/m²/sr). Another technique formeasuring light emission profiles provides for radiometric measurementsincluding, at least, radiant flux (measured in W), radiant intensity(measured in W/sr), irradiance (W/in²), and radiance (W/in²/sr). Yetanother technique for measuring light emissions profiles provides forphotonic measurements including, at least, photon flux (measured inmoles/s), photon intensity (moles/m²), photon irradiance (moles/m²) andphoton radiance (moles/m²/s). In some embodiments, one measure of lightemission profile may be the blue light spectrum of the light emission,which includes light emission with wavelengths between the range of 400nm to 495 nm. In other embodiments, other areas of the light spectrummay be utilized for the light emission profile.

FIG. 2 shows an illustrative diagram 200 of a monitoring enginerequesting the light emission profiles of multiple display devices. Themonitoring engine 206 may request a light emission profile 208 from afirst display device 202, and also request a light emission profile 212from a second display device 204. The monitoring device may receive thelight emission profile from the display devices 210 and 214,respectively. In this technique, the monitoring engine would receiveinformation from each display device regarding specific modelinformation of the display device, and/or information relating to lightemission profiles. In other embodiments, the monitoring engine mayreceive light emission profiles from a database 216, which storesdisplay device information, including light emission profiles for one ormore of the display devices and/or information that may be used togenerate light emission profiles for one or more of the display devices.

The monitoring engine may determine a cumulative emissions exposurebased on the light emission profiles for the one or more display devicesand the display duration of the one or more display devices for theuser. In one technique, the cumulative emissions exposure may bedetermined based on a predefined ratio of the light emission profiles tothe display durations. In other techniques, a mathematical expressionincluding the light emission profiles and the display durations may beimplemented to determine the cumulative emissions exposure.

In some embodiments, the monitoring engine may determine the cumulativeemissions exposure by further including content-based emissions exposureto the user based on characteristics of content consumed on the one ormore devices by the user. The characteristics of content consumed on theone or more devices by the user may include one or more RGB values ofthe content consumed. For example, the RGB values of a media asset maybe a set of matrices comprising the RGB values for each pixel of a frameof the content being consumed. The monitoring engine may determinevarious designations of the RGB matrices based on analysis of the RGBmatrices (e.g., a determination that the matrices are predominately bluelight for an extended duration). These designations (e.g.,“predominately blue light”) may be implemented to determine thecumulative emissions exposure. Alternatively, the RGB values of thematrices may be used in a mathematical expression including the lightemission profiles and the display durations to determine the cumulativeemissions exposure. In other embodiments, the monitoring engine mayreceive media asset information from the media server for a specificuser profile. The media asset information may include media assetsviewed by the user, the duration of each of the media assets, theduration of the media assets watched, and/or related media assetinformation derived from metadata of the media asset or user profile onthe media server. This content-based emissions exposure may be used in amathematical expression including the light emission profiles and thedisplay durations to determine the cumulative emissions exposure.

The monitoring engine may determine whether the cumulative emissionsexposure exceeds a light emission exposure limit set for the user. Thelight emission exposure limit set for the user may be determined by anumber of techniques disclosed herein. In some embodiments, the lightemission exposure limit set for the user is a predetermined valueretrieved from a database and/or the display device. In otherembodiments, the light emission exposure limit set for the user is setby user instruction of a display device.

In yet other embodiments, the light emission exposure limit set for theuser is based on user medical information comprising at least one ofeyesight prescription, eyesight conditions, and eye aids applied to theuser. The monitoring engine may retrieve the user medical informationfrom a medical database for a user associated with a display device. Insome embodiments, the monitoring engine may receive the user medicalinformation from an Internet-of-Things (IoT) device. For example, themonitoring engine may retrieve the user medical information from asmartwatch that monitors medical analytics such as heartrate, pulse,perspiration rate, blink rate, eye angle, etc. In some embodiments, thelight emission exposure limit set for the user is set by instructionreceived from a device interfacing with a medical database (e.g., amedical service professional may utilize a network-enabled electronicdevice to send a light emission exposure limit to the monitoringengine).

The monitoring engine may, in response to the determination that thecumulative emissions exposure exceeds the light emission exposure limitset for the user, transmit an instruction to the one or more displaydevices for execution of a remedial action, based on one or morepredefined rules. In some embodiments, the remedial action includesshutting down the one or more display devices for a predefined timeperiod. In other embodiments, the remedial action includes transmittinga notification to the user to switch to a display device of the one ormore display devices with a lesser light emission profile. For example,this may include a message “Please switch from your mobile phone to yourtablet or PC device within 5 minutes.” In some embodiments, themonitoring engine may determine after a predefined time period, whetherthe user has switched to the display device of the one or more displaydevices with the lesser light emission profile. In response to thedetermination that, after the predefined time period, the user has notswitched to the display device of the one or more display devices withthe lesser light emission profile, the monitoring engine may shut downthe one or more display devices for a predefined period of time. Otherremedial actions may be implemented that cause altering of operations ofone or more of the display devices.

In some embodiments, the monitoring engine 302receives data from the devices 306-312 via the I/O path 406 regardingthe status of their operation (powered on/off, logged in/off). If, at606, control circuitry determines “No,” the user has not switched to thedisplay device of the one or more display devices with the lesser lightemission profile, the process advances to END.

If, at 606, control circuitry determines “Yes,” the user has switched tothe display device of the one or more display devices with the lesserlight emission profile, the process advances to 608. At 608, themonitoring engine 402, by control circuitry 404, shuts down the one ormore display devices for a predefined period of time.
